Chapter 16

After the busy farming season, everyone can finally rest for a while.

After much deliberation, Xu Mei's sister-in-law decided to give up this opportunity to work.

I didn't think so before, but after a long time, I found that it was still inappropriate.

Although the centimeter of the family is more than before, it is not much more, and this centimeter does not add a lot of food to the family.

And the mother-in-law is at home alone, so many children have to be taken care of, especially at the age of Kuaiguai, she still needs to be hugged all the time.

The mother-in-law can't do nothing all day long and just hold the baby. It's okay for a short time, but it can't stand it for a long time.

They are also a little tired from the busy work during this period. Not only do they have to go to work every day, but they also have to come back early to cook.

I used to work at home in a leisurely manner and had enough time, but now I have to run.

Although no family in the village lived like this, after all, they were used to the previous life, and now they are not used to it after such a change.

More importantly, I thought it would be better when the school started, but I didn't expect that not only did the school start, but there were many more children.

Su Jianguo and his brothers also felt sorry for their daughter-in-law, so they decided to let them stay at home so that they would not be so tired.

But in the end, I still have to tell Su's father first, and say hello to his father.

"Dad, I discussed with Jianguo that it is better for Meizi and the others to stay at home. Meizi, who goes out early and returns late every day, loses weight, and Mom is also much tired during this time."

Su's father was not surprised when he heard it, his hands kept moving, "I'll talk to the captain later."

When it was time to get off work, the team leader wasn't surprised to hear Su's father's words, but he was a little worried.

Now everyone has tasted the sweetness of being able to teach children to read and write without spending money. No one wants to take advantage of this kind of cheapness.

Seeing that he was worried, Su's father gave him an idea.

"Educated youth? No, no, no." The team leader refused without even thinking about it.

"Those educated youths only want to go home, how can they teach our children seriously."

Most of the villagers don't like the educated youths in the village, and they don't know how to do such simple farm work as delicate skin and tender meat.

The work points they earn are not enough to feed them, and they have to give them a little more every time they are afraid that they will starve to death. People in the village have long been unhappy.

With so many educated youths dispatched over the years, the village has to make room for them to live in, and there are quite a few who can't do their jobs and eat.

There are also some educated youths who don't know how to work, so they get ideas from people in the village and cause a lot of trouble.

Although Su's father didn't have much contact with the villagers, he still knew some things that happened in the village.

"They came from students in the first place, and work is not what they are good at, so it is better to change to something they are good at."

"If you think they're not doing well, change someone else. With so many educated youths, there are always people who want to do it. You don't have to go to the field to earn a centimeter. There must be many people rushing to do it." Su's father suggested to him, it's better than not working for nothing. Be strong.

Father Su said, the captain was a little moved. Although he didn't read many books, he also knew that reading more books was a good thing.

Many families in the village have been delaying their children from going to school because the school is too far away.

How can this work? Now when I go to the city to work as a worker, those factories want people who can read and write.

"Let me think."

Seeing that he listened to it, Su's father stopped talking and took his two sons home.

night.

"Come to Mommy obediently." Wang Xiujuan lay at the end of the bed, beckoning her daughter to crawl over.

When raising her third child, Wang Xiujuan felt that the child was too naughty, and would crawl away if she didn't pay attention, and she had endless energy all day long.

Now with a daughter, brother and sister are just the opposite, this one is too lazy, no matter how you tease her to attract her with food, it won't work.

Wherever you put her, she just sits there and can have fun alone.

"Climb over obediently, okay, mom is waiting for you here."

Su Qinghe looked up, instead of crawling, she reached out to her mother to hug her.

"Don't hug, just crawl over by yourself, okay? Mom will hug you when you crawl over."

If you don't hug, don't hug, Su Qinghe put down her hands again, and lowered her head to play with her, so she didn't want to move.

"Girl, come and give Dad a hug." Su Jianguo opened the door and came in.

"Ah." When Su Qinghe heard that she wanted to hug her, she cooperatively reached out to let him hug her.

Wang Xiujuan had no choice but to sit at the end of the bed and watch the father and daughter making out.

"This kid is too lazy to move, what's the point?"

Su Jianguo didn't take it seriously at all, he played high and high with his daughter, and he never got tired of playing with his daughter since he was a child.

"It's okay, darling, you're still young now, it will be fine when you get older." Su Jianguo had a kind of blind confidence in his daughter.

Su Qinghe happened to like this kind of thing, so she smiled at her father very convincingly.

I just don't want to, why crawl around so hard when I can sit, wasting energy.

Wang Xiujuan was almost pissed off by him, because they were the same father and daughter, and she was the bad guy.

"I thought about taking Kuaiguai and Sanwa back in two days."

Wang Xiujuan wanted to take the children home to have a look before the weather cooled down.

When the weather is cold, not to mention the parents-in-law and mother-in-law are reluctant, she herself is also reluctant to take the children out.

"I'll ask for leave to go back with you at that time." Su Jianguo nodded, he should take the child there, and he must not go out this year's Chinese New Year.

Early the next morning, Su Jianguo told Su's father and mother about it.

The daughter-in-law wanted to go back to her natal home to have a look, so the couple naturally had no objection, and Mother Su also agreed.

"I want to go back and have a look. The last time my uncle came was when Kuaiguai was full moon, and Kuaiguai hasn't seen grandma yet."

After breakfast, Mother Su went to pack up the things for her daughter-in-law to bring back to her natal home.

"Mom doesn't need to bring so much, a little is enough." Seeing her mother-in-law packing such a big bag, Wang Xiujuan hurriedly refused.

Which daughter-in-law brought so many things back to her mother's house, people who didn't know thought she was subsidizing her mother's family with things from her husband's family, which was not good for people to see.

"Others say other people's things, we live our own, it's none of their business." Su's mother reassured her, and she didn't mean to bring her so much.

It's just, "This is for my uncle's family, this is for my mother-in-law, these two are for your two aunts, and these are for your uncle's family."

Wang Xiujuan's situation is special. If someone else goes back to her natal home, it is enough to bring some things to her parents.

It's just that her father died unexpectedly not long after she was born, and her mother remarried soon, leaving her three children alone.

Wang Xiujuan was only a few months old at that time, her eldest sister was already eight years old at that time, her second brother was also six years old, her grandparents also passed away very early, and she was taken back by her grandmother for only a few months to raise her until she was five years old. .

When her biological father died, there was not much money left in the family, especially when there were two children in the family who were studying.

When her biological father passed away, her eldest sister was in third grade, and her second brother was in first grade. The little money left by the family was barely enough for the two of them to finish elementary school.

Originally, in the situation of their family, they must not be able to study. It is a dream to want to study even without food.

But before her biological father died, she was the captain of the village, and she always said that no matter how hard or tired she was, she would support the children in the family to study.

After her biological father passed away, the head of the village team became her biological father's fourth younger brother. Her biological father had many brothers, and he had seven.

The relationship between the brothers has always been pretty good, and now the eldest brother has left four children, and the brothers naturally can't do anything and just look at nothing.

Finally, after discussing and discussing, if they want to go to this school, the tuition fees can only be paid by their siblings themselves, and they will take turns to eat at each of their families.

Although it is difficult, life can still go on.

Later, Wang Xiujuan went back, but at that time, the family's money was almost used up, and it was not enough for her to study.

The siblings try to make money. Whenever they have time on weekdays, they go to the mountains to dig some medicinal materials, and take them to the medicinal materials store in the town to exchange for money.

In the summer, I took Wang Xiujuan outside to catch cicadas, and the cicadas I caught could be exchanged for money.

At that time, her eldest sister and second brother had already graduated from elementary school, but they were too young, and no one was willing to accept them if they wanted to work.

Until she was seven years old, her eldest sister ran to the city to work with a primary school graduation certificate. At the beginning, the monthly money was very little.

Wang Xiuping is not willing to spend any extra money except for meals, so she saves all the money for her sister's education.

And when his second brother was 14 years old, someone from the town came to recruit soldiers, and he signed up to serve as a soldier. After becoming a soldier, he saved his money every month.

The purpose of the siblings is very clear, to let the younger sister study and live a good life.

Wang Xiujuan also lived up to the expectations of her elder sister and her second brother, and went all the way to high school.

The day before going back, Wang Xiujuan called her second brother and told her that she was going back. By the way, she asked him if it was convenient for him to pick her up, as he had a lot of things to bring.

I also greeted my eldest sister and asked her if she wanted to come together, but Wang Xiuping refused. She has to go to work now, and it is too troublesome to go back, and she won't be able to come back that day.

On the day of going back, Wang Zhihui left home early in the morning and came to Su's house.

"Brother, why are you here so early?" Wang Xiujuan was surprised, and quickly pulled him in, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Eat, your sister-in-law asked me to eat it at home before coming back." Wang Zhihui got up early in the morning, cleaned up his sister's room with his wife, and took the quilt outside to dry.

Sanwa knew from yesterday that she was going to her uncle's house today, so she became excited at night, and got up much earlier than usual in the morning, and rushed towards anyone who came, "Uncle."

"Hey, the third baby has grown taller again." Wang Zhihui hugged his nephew with a smile on his face.

"My uncle is here, come in and sit down." Mother Su heard the commotion outside.

"Aunt Su." Wang Zhihui greeted with a smile, and saw Father Su coming out, "Uncle Su."

For some reason, Wang Zhihui felt that every time he saw his younger sister, his father-in-law, it gave him the feeling of encountering a superior when he was a soldier. It was the first time he felt this kind of majesty from someone else after he retired from the army.

Su's father admired the younger daughter-in-law's two elder brothers and sisters quite a bit. At that age, he had such courage, which was beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"Second brother."

"Zhihui."

The Su Jianjun brothers also came out in the yard one after another.

During the holidays, the two families are still close. The Su Jianjun brothers have a good relationship with Wang Zhihui, and some ideas are quite speculative. They are one of the few people here who can talk.
